Skyraider intact, 1975Dan,
Thanks for posting this, especially the documentation of the crash in 1959. My brother Jim and I descended through Tenaya Canyon in the first week of June, 1975. We encountered the cracked-up but intact AD-6 Skyraider in all its glory, shocked to see such a big plane in here. I remember thinking at first it was a Thunderbolt because of the 360 degree glass (plexiglas?) cockpit. But the plane was shiny and bright in the alpine sun at that time. I understand the military disassembled it and took away everything but the radial engine later in '75.
